Accredited Drug Testing offers multiple testing methods based on customer requirements. Urine testing, with its 1 to 5-day detection period, is widely used by employers, schools, and courts. However, hair testing, which has a 90-day detection period, is increasingly popular.

Choosing the Right Drug Testing Panel

Drug screening panels are groups of tests that determine what substances are screened during a test. Common panels include 5-panel, 10-panel, and 12-panel setups (indicating how many substances are tested for), and custom options are available.

Understanding a Drug Test

A drug test analyzes a biological specimen like urine, hair, blood, breath, sweat, or oral fluid/saliva to determine the presence of specific substances. These tests are used to detect performance-enhancing drugs in sports, ensure workplace compliance, or meet legal requirements. Methods vary in accuracy and detection periods. A drug test may also involve quantitative analysis for responsible drug use.

Impacts of Passive Marijuana Smoke

Inhaling passive smoke from others' marijuana use typically does not result in a positive drug test, as thresholds for lab analyses exceed such exposure levels.

Test anomalies indicating sample tampering or false negatives could include:

• Low creatinine values, possibly due to sample dilution from excessive water intake or direct addition.
• Creatinine levels combined with specific gravity help assess dilution, with some labs coloring toilet water blue to prevent this.
• Additions of enzymes can alter urine stability and pH, both monitored during testing.

Understanding Drug Detection Periods

Detection windows in drug testing, or look-back periods, depend on various factors:

• Dosage of the drug
• Frequency of use
• Type of drug
• Individual's metabolism and health
• Fluid intake post-drug consumption
• Physical activity post-intake
• Genetic factors affecting drug response
